I could list a ton of things, much like Corey. But, if you're talking return on the dollar for performance, I'd have to say our Jenn-Air dishwasher we purchased at our local Salvation Army thrift store many moons ago.

Paid $15 for it and learned by calling the company and giving them the serial number that it had been a floor model in an appliance store. We could tell it had been used little or not at all by the way the underside and back looked. The inside was spotless.

Turns out the appliance store donated it because it was an outdated model and has plenty of whistles and bells. We didn't care how it got to the thrift store. It's wonderful and performs like a champ.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

This is real inspiration. Look what Julia became!

Beyond a doubt the Sunpentown Ice maker! It's been on making ice 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for 3 years now - amazing machine! The coffee roaster and burr grinder come in 2nd. The Krups citrus juicer rates a solid 3rd, tied with the foodsaver.

too soon to tell really, but my Wolf dual fuel range has done all I have asked and expected of it. But maybe it's the Faber ventilation that clears all the smoke and steam I generate with Wolfy so the alarms don't go off.

Haha!! So many that I shouldn't have to buy one for a long time to come!

Yeah Harborwitch, I agree with you!!

It is truly something to behold!! Plus it keeps you from ever having to buy ice, which can be ridiculously expensive!

I just used mine the other day to replenish and re-up the ice that was all used up. It's great to have, because you can make tons of ice and store it in the freezer so that you'll have plenty of ice on hand for whatever come what may!!
